Ollie

Agentic OS — a fleet of AI operating systems in production

Ollie started as the operating system that runs JNOW day-to-day and grew into a provisionable fleet: a control plane that stands up complete agentic boxes — agents, dashboards, per-instance auth, and governance — on bare cloud servers. Three instances run in production today. Specialist agents on the Claude Agent SDK share a versioned business brain; a Fleet control plane handles provisioning, updates, role-based access, and health checks; every run is owned, gated, and audited.

  • Fleet control plane provisions complete agentic boxes on bare cloud servers — three in production
  • Specialist agents on the Claude Agent SDK with a shared, versioned business knowledge base
  • Role-based access, human-in-the-loop approval queues, and per-run ownership (the AI Governance layer)
  • Voice receptionist tier (ElevenLabs + Twilio) booking appointments end-to-end
  • Full memory, usage, and cost telemetry per instance — not a wrapper, the actual control plane behind every JNOW engagement

AI Governance

The policy, approval, and audit layer for autonomous agents

The answer to "how do you let agents act without losing control?" Governance built as a first-class system, not a checkbox: role-based access that fails closed, human approval gates on consequential actions, per-run ownership persisted to Postgres, and full audit trails across a fleet of autonomous agents. It surfaces inside Ollie as a display layer, but the concept stands alone — it came from operating real agent fleets for real businesses, not from a policy deck.

  • Fail-closed RBAC — an unknown owner is denied, never assumed
  • Human-in-the-loop approval queues for consequential agent actions
  • Per-run ownership and audit trail persisted to Postgres — survives restarts
  • Exposure health checks and guardrail visibility per user tier
  • Proven across three production instances before it had a name

AI Resume

The Site You're Looking At Right Now

An AI-queryable portfolio that lets hiring managers ask Claude anything about my background — including the uncomfortable questions most candidates dodge. Built with an "honest AI" philosophy: the system is explicitly instructed to surface weaknesses and poor fits, not just sell.

  • Conversational AI powered by Claude — trained on my full career context including private reflections
  • Job description analyzer that gives a structured fit verdict with gaps and transferable skills
  • Chat-first redesign: the hero IS the conversation — the site demos the skill it claims
  • Technical skills section auto-derived from actual project repositories

GetBilled

AI Sales Tools + Full GTM Build for SAP Billing Intelligence

Built the AI-powered sales tooling and the entire go-to-market motion for an SAP-certified billing intelligence platform. The AI components are the load-bearing parts: an account scorer that prioritizes outbound by billing complexity and SAP fit, a Trapped Cash Estimator that quantifies leakage from billing delays, and a value-report PDF generator that auto-produces prospect-specific business cases. The GTM playbook (ICP, messaging, sales process, comp model) is what the AI tools sit inside.

  • AI account scorer prioritizing outbound by billing complexity and SAP fit
  • Trapped Cash Estimator — interactive ROI calculator embedded in discovery calls
  • Auto-generated value-report PDFs with prospect-specific projections
  • Outbound automation pipeline connecting intent signals to sequenced outreach
  • Full GTM playbook: ICP definition, messaging framework, sales process, comp model

InspectionLens

AI Document Processing for Real Estate Inspections

Turns raw home inspection reports into structured, negotiation-ready summaries. Buyers and agents upload a PDF; the system extracts every issue, categorizes severity, estimates repair costs, and generates a clean summary they can share with sellers. Same architecture pattern applies to legal, insurance, and compliance document workflows.

  • PDF parsing and extraction from any inspection report format
  • AI categorization by severity: safety hazards, major repairs, cosmetic issues
  • Cost estimate ranges based on issue type and regional construction data
  • Generates a branded summary document ready for negotiation
  • Pattern portable to legal, insurance, and compliance document workflows

Multi-Tenant Field Service Management Platform

Full-stack platform for field service businesses — replacing the spreadsheets and phone calls that most small operators still use. Built for technicians in the field and dispatchers in the office. Multi-tenant architecture with row-level security so each org's data is fully isolated.

  • Job dispatch, scheduling, and real-time technician status tracking
  • Customer communication portal with automated appointment reminders
  • Multi-tenant architecture with row-level security — each org's data fully isolated
  • Integrated communications (Twilio, Stripe, QuickBooks)
  • Mobile-first UI with optimistic updates for fast performance on spotty connections
